Not mine .... but repaired the poor screen washers on my Bro-in-law's DC .... piping split right where it pushes onto washer jets .................. bloody dash out jobbie, took us 2 hours!
Then opened and closed my rear door a few times .... just to 'experiance' the superior operation now it has a gas strut door stay, and admire my stainless floor trim Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

BIG THANK YOU to LORRYMAN
Thanks Brian, the seat covers you sent me are much nicer than I expected (although I never doubted for a minute you buy tat! ) VERY pleased with them, they are really heavy duty, I owe you and you must let me give you something for them . I wonder who made them, I might be able to match up a rear set eventually! Wonder if they are early LR Puma ones!

You are welcome Chris, enjoy them. If I remember correctly I think I got a company to make them for me? I will have a dig through my emails and invoices to see if I can find the company. But it was definitely not LR who supplied them as these covers are quality.
PS: You need to pull the backrest cover down more tightly at the base as the cover sits flush with the seat. |

Thanks mate, will go and give them a tug You had them made They did a great job. Don't worry about the maker Brian if these were £100 then I couldn't afford a rear set. I will probably save up for a rear set of Exmoor trim ones in black - should match OK

Went to look at a very nice 1981 series 3, Irish registered originally, with diesel engine and only 54k on it
Very honest car, you do not see to many like it these days. To buy or not to buy that is the question. Click image to enlarge Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated |

Series 3's are very cheap to buy, you can get some lovely original low mileage ones for 3-4K Most prefer the Series 2's because of the lights in the middle look, free road tax and better build quality of the earlier ones. I like em all though and of course the 3's have full synchro which is easier for some. Looks nice CR, make sure it's all sound and working. Top of the bulkhead is one of their weak points difficult to sort - and usual chassis, gearbox etc etc. good luck
